One Championship needs a placeholder for reigning 115-pound titleholder Angela Lee.

Stamp Fairtex will collide with Seo Hee Ham for the interim women’s atomweight championship in the ONE on Prime Video 14 headliner this Friday at Singapore Indoor Stadium in Kallang, Singapore. The winner figures to meet the sidelined Lee in a unification match sometime in the not-too-distant future. Fairtex has rattled off five victories across her past six appearances. She last fought at ONE on Prime Video 10, where she put away Alyse Anderson with a body kick in the second round of their May 5 pairing. Ham, meanwhile, enters the cage on the strength of a career-best nine fight winning streak. The Ultimate Fighting Championship veteran last competed on March 24, when she outpointed Itsuki Hirata to a unanimous decision at ONE on Prime Video 8.

As Fairtex and Ham make final preparations for their high-stakes showdown in Southeast Asia, a look at some of the numbers that have accompanied them to this point:

25: Years of age for Fairtex, who was born in Rayong, Thailand, on Oct. 16, 1997.

4: Fairtex victories by knockout or technical knockout, accounting for 40% of her career total (10). Her list of victims: Anderson, Sunisa Srisan, Puja Tomar and Rashi Shinde. Fairtex owns two other victories by submission (20%) and four more by decision (40%).

19: Seconds needed for Fairtex to cut down the aforementioned Shinde with a head kick at ONE Warrior Series 2 on July 9, 2018. More than five years later, it remains her fastest finish to date.

6: Consecutive calendar years in which Fairtex has fought at least once. In addition to her 1-0 mark in 2023, she went 1-0 in 2018, 2-0 in 2019, 2-0 in 2020, 3-1 in 2021 and 1-1 in 2022.

.750: Cumulative winning percentage between the two women—Lee and Alyona Rassohyna—who have defeated Fairtex. They boast a combined record of 24-8.

36: Years of age for Ham, who was born on March 8, 1987 in Gumi, South Korea.

3: Ham wins by submission, accounting for 12% of her career total (26). Her methods of choice: two armbars and one rear-naked choke. Ham holds four other wins by knockout or technical knockout (15%) and 19 more by decision (73%).

2,498: Days between losses for Ham. She last tasted defeat on Nov. 26, 2016, when she wound up on the wrong side of a split decision against ex-King of the Cage champion Danielle Taylor at UFC Fight Night 101.

75: Rounds started by Ham as a professional mixed martial artist. The former Jewels, Road Fighting Championship and Rizin Fighting Federation titleholder has gone the distance on 24 different occasions and carries a 19-5 record in those bouts.

132: Combined victories between the seven women—Ayaka Hamasaki (twice), Taylor, Bec Rawlings, Joanne Wood, Megumi Fujii, Yuka Tsuji and Miki Matsumoto—who have beaten Ham. They sport a .759 cumulative winning percentage at 132-42.
